Boys, remember your high school physics, acceleration of a falling object is 9.8 m/s/s regardless of weight, until it reachs a terminal velocity of 118mph, in a bomber, the pilot did not release the bombs, they had someone else aboard who did.

[@SpareTimeProjects1]

Terminal velocity is not 118mph for all objects. I know you know this. Just your post made it sound like that so I wanted to make sure if someone else came along they had that clarification

[@withoutstickers]

Correct, Mass does not influence acceleration, but it does influence the force on the object, so a heavier bomb will hit the ground with a greater force

[@vernonlloyd1388]

Fpv camera with cross hair would be the job 👍

[@bobbytheferret6809]

Seems Dave is becoming the star of the show. His innovations are outstanding. Watch out Josh!

[@davidjester5085]

Thank you for the kind words but no one could ever replace that man. He is the one and only

[@kovzy727]

@@davidjester5085 yeah i was about to say 😂

[@RobertDensmore]

agreed 😆

[@kyler_johnny]

idea: Make an airport out of cardboard, fill it with anti air guns, and have a bomber plane attack it

[@bradleysmith2021]

Have you considered adding a bombardier’s camera? A second man could have a VR headset and a radio with stick control…approaching the target, the bombardier takes over and guides it in and releases.

[@elizabeth79014]

That’s hat I almost said then I read this comment And 2, you could also use a normal camera, but facing downward with great fps and cross-hares.

[@timothywachowicz8308]

Flying Tank was THE Flight Test GOAT Episode!!! Such a victory! It wasn't suppose to fly yet fly it did! Personal Favourite!! Bring on the massive flying tank please. Good vibrations to the whole flight test Crew, fans, builders & flyers!

[@reesepotter8954]

Would love to see the B-25 XL as a kit! Great inspiration as always!

[@stephencantbewrong8250]

Completely agree!

[@deadwolf2978]

I think adding small parachutes to the bombs will give you bigger coverage and accuracy on the drop. May be even can get a video shot of hits from the air..

[@theeddytor3490]

we (me and my nephews and nieces) made drop bombs too but we used paper mesh to make shell rather than using plastic or 3d printed parts since those were kinda suppose to explode and spread out powdered color fillings. also i forgot to mention one of my nephew used those empty juice box as shell. easier to fill and no cost in built.

[@briancollins8237]

Could you run a second radio and an FPV for the bomb site and bomb release and have a bombardier in charge of the drop? Seems like it would be pretty easy to set up and would take the guess work out of it. Still, that was an incredible drop of precision with LOS flying and such altitude! Josh has some serious piloting skills! Great episode! Been a fan since 2012! Thanks for all you do!

[@NoAgendaFPV]

Could use iNav on a F411-WTE FC to have the bomb site FPV camera adjust angle based on altitude and speed too. Wouldn't take much work in the Logic Commands, but probably several test flights.

[@joshuamcintyre9292]

yeah but fill the bombs with gunpowder

Oooooo

[@Thewolf10505]

Fr tho

[@Red-Devil-Dog]

PLEASE do more of these. I love the destruction type videos. Especially the b17.

[@TheWaynecollins]

Yes! Bring back the flying tanks ! Loved the original. And yes I want to see a flying tank kit !

[@indominusrex343]

You have to make that with the b17 Greetings from germany

[@traveler7137]

Absolutely we had a blast watching this . Fantastic job again boys.

[@tjaberingeliasberg8508]

if you use the line tracking kits on the tanks you could set up a line outside having a moving convoy of tanks and then you could do bombing runs or hook the plane up with one of the laser systems and the tanks with receivers and when they get shot a thingymabob blows up (idk if that would work, its like the architects dream is an engineers nightmare kinda thing.... yknow)

[@FrandChai]

Bro is straight up building bombs in the basement lmao..

[@ThatFloridaMf]

This came out the same day two other vintage planes collided at a Dallas air show

[@JohnBeard35]

Just an idea to take the bomber to the next level, the bombardier can wear fpv goggles and have a camera pointing down simulating bomb sights and have the bombardier launch the bombs. Just a thought

[@InRemoteControl]

Definitely more tank episodes and please please release the plans for it as you actually said you would in one of your episodes.

[@geneside0]

Flying tanks bombing some planes, now that would be cool and completely different.. but also a plane able to launch a rescue boat would be awesome. If anyone can do it, its FliteTest!!

[@DesignedbyWill2084]

Would be interesting to have a 2nd person running bombs like the B17 turrets. A bomb site with elevation and ground speed would help dial it in.

[@segue2ant395]

You can drop multiple bombs in sequence using a single motor and a carousel. It might have been a squeeze to fit it into the B25 but I'd love to see a more complex release mechanism that allows for multiple bombing runs in future attempts :)

[@brettnelson7048]

The amazement never stops with this channel. Ever!

[@DustyFixes]

Imagine a flying tank drops bombs on an air field full of Bombers?

[@YukoSaru-oz4lb]

you make the most complex subjects super relatable!

[@bramrc1246]

Idk of this is a good idea but,,, You guys should make a stits SA-2A Skybaby, that's the official smallest plane in the world,, en you guys should make a 1/1 scale version I mean it's not that big so it's easy to build and you have your first ever 1/1 rc plane,,,

[@johncarold]

Ha Ha. I need to build a B-25, one of my favorite bombers of WW2, and definitely the bombs. Thanks for the video

[@cnlnews8967]

Amazing video, as always! I love the B-25 and the tanks, good job!

[@schwabrichard9829]

Great video folks! Who could refuse a flying tank video!!!!

[@centauri9458]

G1 Transformers had a character named Blitzwing. He was a Decepticon triple changer and very popular. He changed from a jet to a tank and to a robot. That big flying tank made me think of Blitzwing. Very cool

[@kingerproblox351]

Why is this channel so underrated?

[@earthsciteach]

Mike made the Imperial Japanese Navy proud with that kamikaze attack with the quad! What's left of that? LOL

[@whidzee]

Dave is a superstar! Also love his shirt, need to get one of those

[@Sickzero]

Awesome as always! For the next project I suggest Chuck Yeager's X1 test flight. Maybe with a small rocket drive, dropped from the wing of the B17?

[@adamnewyork]

As a western New Yorker now living in the EU, I loved hearing Stefen saying "krick" instead of creek.

[@daniellopez5094]

Now you should make an attack helicopter with fireworks

[@capnhardway]

When somebody wants to attack us, I'm getting with you guys!

[@The_Godzillafan15692]

One day I wanna be as good as y’all and make models like this, yall one of my favorite KZbinrs ever maybe one day I can be as good as y’all are at this stuff, keep up the good work love y’all

[@firecwby1999]

Loved this. Please keep up the fun!

[@matthewadamo3047]

Your inspiring me to make my own model plane but I know that I have to start of small. Love y’all ❤️

[@chrisgreenawalt4438]

Bixler's are the best in the biz! Proud of y'all!!! 🐐

[@traveler7137]

Messaging while I'm watching. Must say right away that the bomb explosion is very scale looking. And I always enjoy things when they're scale. That's just me anyways I'm going to continue to watch I'll leave my final message at the end you guys are awesome.

[@rory4116]

It’s great, I have my own army of rc planes, so much fun, I have followed you guys since you did the review on the F4F wildcat, still never cease to amaze me

[@newt2010]

Too much fun. Love this channel. Cheers guys

[@Fehrnseherglucken]

Fly those lil tanks guys!!! Awesome episode

[@edwardkie380]

From Panzer to Bixler tank with wings whooohooo too funny ! Looking forward the tank mayhem !!!

[@ok-xq2fj]

next time we have a war with ants or anything small we can call these guys

[@MyrrdynWhitefall]

Josh, the whole crew should all fly bombers and drops shells on a group of tanks together!!!

[@Mars-pq5qs]

COOL I like how when the bomb hits it makes a gunfire noise and explodes with smoke

[@jjbpaca]

Can you make the flying tank shoot at the airplane? Tank/Airplane air dog fight... lol

[@thelastdarkwolfrising]

Fate really is a fickle thing. To think this video about a world war 2 bomber be released on the same day as that of the B 17 tragedy.

[@figbloppa7183]

It would be great if you guy’s included a bomber view, since the bombers would have a sight with a crosshair on it that was fixed to show where the bombs would hit, that would definitely make it a lot easier to aim!

[@RECK_Adventures]

I love that. That was epic!

[@TFN_Araque]

Please bring the flying tank back

[@terrywells3955]

Guys this was sooooo Awesome

[@ralphbronzin9721]

I am so jealous of Josh and the crew! In high school I never considered that I could make a living crashing model airplanes!!! 🤣😂

[@whitemonk369]

do you know where they flying this plane? the place name?

[@mewrongway]

@@whitemonk369 No sorry I do not.

[@kiwinika]

Hi FliteTest! Would be awesome if you could build a Canadair CL-415 (those big yellow and red firefighter planes) you guys are so awesome thank you for all your content.

[@blakesaupe129]

I could just imagine the police interrogating them and asking if they’ve ever made a numb before. They would have to say yes lol 😂

[@davidunderwood1907]

That was too cool to only drop one bomb load. Make like 32 bombs or 48 bombs. Land and reload. So cool

[@kenmason-xn7pr]

Classic. this channel i have watched for a long time i saw the a10 vs tank vid i saw EVERYTHING ove this channel 5 stars

[@danielhreno9582]

Loving it!

[@thefinalsurvivur6161]

Something I would love to see y'all attempt is bomb bay doors that can open and close, as well as some sort of bomb aiming camera

[@TheHarberHangar]

DEFINITELY need a B-25 XL!!

[@thenotsousefulengine]

finally my favorite bomber got some attention

[@toddhuderle9464]

Tank dog fighting seems like a lot of fun!

[@MorningView]

awesome episode

[@kensmith8832]

Back in the 70's we made what we called a Ninja smoke bomb. It was a hand thrown ball that would create a cloud of smoke when it hit the ground.

[@larry9379]

A flying tank battle would be awesome! 👍

[@jammer2isme]

YES! flying tanks attacking aircraft on the ground! PAYBACK BABY!!!

[@T333MMM]

This is crazy! Love your vids guys!

[@davidjester5085]

Thank you!

[@ThePrinceOfParaphernalia]

Outstanding!

[@elektron2kim666]

These videos are so funny. You should use a fpv camera for aiming on the ground. They used advanced equipment to not waste every drop already in WW2.

[@SharkysGarageRCandMore]

Would love the mini flying tanks, and would love them as a kit !

[@bruhWtm]

That scene where the bombs where dropped lookin up at the sky and the plane looked like a real bomber plane 10:48

[@PaperPilotGamer]

Flying tanks! Also, a flying tank *kit* would be awesome.

[@Tom-wl9sx]

Entertaining as always. 🙃

[@MrFester63]

Perhaps a flying tank dog fight??? or at least have the tank soot while flying??? Love you guys!! Keep it up!! 🛩

I like how these guys making replica and testung them so satisfying

[@Thom101]

flying tanks with laser tag equipment installed 💥😊

[@Aldoflexx]

A squadron of b-52s 1/4 scale with 50 bombs each would be fun to watch do some carpet bombing with Dave`s new bomb design

[@georget.8982]

Very entertaining. Love the bombs.

[@stevenjohnson6962]

Yeah I would love to see the flying tanks return

[@malnic5189]

Josh Firstly you need to try Bomb Drop from POV flight. Secondly I think I would love to see the tanks fly again.

[@userTJ39780]

Time for the Tanks to take Flight! Slap some mini sportster wings on them and a Flerken motor in the back!
